BTW, what's your plan if you get called on the turn bet? I think you have to follow through and bet any river that is not a heart.

I disagree. If they're calling the turn they're just as likely to call the river with almost any 2-cards. The only way I'm betting the river is if I hit my straight.

And this may be the best point as to why I need to check/fold the turn - I can't really legitimately follow up my turn bluff with a river bet.

I couldn't disagree more. Villain here will too often call with a high heart and a very small piece of the board hoping you will check it to him with the latter. I think you get Villain to fold far too often with another bet on the river. You cannot allow him to win with a Q [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] by checking behind you.

Maybe to mitigate the risk of this play, you can only bet the non-heart river if the SB calls your turn bet (seems less likely that SB has a hand worth calling 2 BBs with if he checked it twice.)

IMO, if you're going to bet the turn here, you should be preprared to fire again on the river. Otherwise, keep your [cesnored] gun in the holster.
